On Fox during the Levin show news break, the announcer said the name “has long been considered racist.”

Why not put it to a vote. Cleveland Indians would win -—hands down!

They figured out ways around so-called “voting”. Voting is now a quaint, out-dated concept. COUNTING is where it’s at!

Find an Indian tribe and pay them for using their name and a symbol. If they are OK with a mascot, have them design it.

The Florida Seminoles can give them some advice.

Or just be chickens and call yourselves the Chickens. Their mascot could be "Mike the Headless Chicken." (Look him up). Their team rally cheer would be "buck buck buh guck!" and do the chicken song and dance. That would be fun! Imagine the fans "bucking" and flapping their wings. It's a game, have some fun.

Or call them the Clevleand Clinics. Fans wear doc or nurse barb. When you are rallying imitate the flat line. "Beep beep, beep beep, beep beep, beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!" aimed the the other team.

What is Indiana going to change its name to? A State in America?

Or Indianapolis? A City in A State in America?

Amazing. If an inveterate racist wanted to eliminate all pop-culture reference to non-white culture in America, he couldn’t do a better job than these idiots are doing.

The idiot left and chickenshit corporate lackies are actually going to completely eliminate any knowledge or positive representations of Native Americans.

A lot of folks are not even thinking about Sports right now.
Not with the Republic about to slide over a waterfall within weeks.

I wouldn’t be offended if they call themselves the “Cleveland Caucasians.”

The team color should be yellow, of course.

Since we now a banana republic, they might as well reflect current trends and call themselves the Cleveland Bananas.

I bet if we got enough people to write the owners, they would think “The Cleveland Rocks” would be a good name. We could tell them it’s for the Hall of Fame, etc. It might be a couple of years before they finally figure it out.

As I said on another thread about this...

Hi All.

IT DOESN’T MATTER !

It doesn’t matter what the league or team owners want to call it, I will ALWAYS, for the rest of my earthly days call the Cleveland baseball team the INDIANS and I suggest that those here who are Indians fans NEVER use any of the fake monikers foisted upon the Tribe.

When the season is going again call the team offices and tell them you want seasons tickets to watch the Indians. When they tell you they’re some other name that’s the time to say “Never-mind”

Call the local Mockingbird Media outlets and ask if the Indians won today. Don’t buy any merch with any name on it other than Chief Wahoo and Indians on it. Get clip art and make your own merch.

WRITE letters and send them by smail-mail. E-mails just go in the bit-bucket, phone calls might get logged but to really get noticed a letter to Lawrence J. Dolan - Owner or
Paul J. Dolan - Chairman/Chief Executive Officer. By doing so it has to be handled, opened and read by an executive secretary because that letter could be of importance. When the mail comes in by bags and buckets it does get attention.

I have not watched an Indians game in years, but...

I’ve listened to every game for years on the radio. You can’t beat Hammy’s calls and a radio generates no ratings - the best of both worlds.
